Emerging Arts Professionals’ 8th Annual Emergence Gathering, June 11

This year, we explore the importance and benefits of reconnecting the essential practices in our lives: our art and our work.

What does it mean for the arts and culture field if arts workers are removed from the creation or experience of art? What knowledge can we access when we recenter culture? How can we actively prioritize creative experience over static mechanisms?

How do we spend each day remembering why we do this work? Join us for a day of mental and physical exploration of tools we can use, and models we can look to, for bringing art and work together at Emergence 2018: Reclaim the Art, Rebalance the Work — presented by Emerging Arts Professionals San Francisco/Bay Area (EAP) and Root Division.

Emergence, the annual convening of the EAP network, provides a collaborative platform for Bay Area arts & culture workers to connect, share ideas, and elevate their work and voices. EAP is committed to curating Emergence as a participatory experience that encourages deep connections and inquiries that are omnidirectional through generations, career levels, business models, and disciplines. Our goal is for you to walk away with actionable next steps, as well as tangible tools and a strengthened network to support your work.
